Answer:

Pyruvate or Pyruvic Acid a 3-carbon molecule formed during glycolysis of Glucose, a 6-carbon molecule.

Explanation:

This is the first step of respiration (aerobic as well as anaerobic).

Further, it is only after the break-down of glucose (6C) into pyruvate (3C) that CO₂ (1C) or C₂H₅OH (2C) molecules are formed to give energy acc. to the availability of oxygen.
